In Memory of Umbria

The Circus was happy to have Paipi's best good friend, Umbria, over to the casa for a weekend, while Umbi's parents (Angel and Dave) were at a wedding in Chicago.  Unfortunately, a week after Umbi's visit, she passed away; nevertheless, Paipi and Sachi both showed their love to Umbi, which was very much reciprocated and good times were had.  We hope little Umbi is chasing squirrels and sleeping on top of the covers in doggie-heaven.  Here's photos from her recent visit and a run throughout the years:

What is outside...?  

...even more importantly, what is that smell?

Sweet sleeping one piece!

We love you Umbi

And more from back in the day.  Some of these may make Umbria look ferocious, but she was, without a doubt, Paipi's best friend.  They play fought over everything, but as these pictures don't lie, when all was done, they enjoyed each other's company.  We'll miss Umbria (affectionately known as Umbichan), but the time we had with her was fantastic.  Here she is:
